He had given a lot of time and money to the fraternity to that point. I can think of a couple other examples of people who gave an immense amount of their time to the fraternity in other capacities who were initiated.

I still can't completely wrap my head around the reasons for doing it, on either side of the coin, but I'll defer to think it should be left off the board (because of membership discussions, etc.).
Yeah, I have really never heard much about it. I know of several men who have been given special recognitions by various chapters of SAE, but I dunno if they were actually initiated or not. Barry Switzer is one that comes to mind.......I have heard from a couple people that he is an "honorary" initiate of Oklahoma Kappa........but I dunno if that is the same thing as an alumni initiation.
